Feeling Helpless? You Can Help Carol

If you have any spare dimes, please consider helping Carol, a woman I know and love:

Stop DVThe following narrative is from a GoFundMe page that is raising funds that will go to her, directly:

Carol* and her two young children need your help. They have endured a lot that no one should and at the hands of someone who was meant to love, cherish and protect them more than anyone else.

She survived the last attack at 34 weeks pregnant as did her oldest child. For kidnap, torture and rape, their husband, father and also attacker was sentenced to only 8 years.

Worse, he is being released now after serving less than 3 years of his sentence… and he has every intention to continue hurting Carol and the children as evidenced in his written threats to her life.

Appeals are in progress to try and stop this but unfortunately, the chances of the due process completing in time to be effective are very very slim to none.

Carol and her children need to flee. They are working on an exit plan. These efforts cost resources including money.

Carol is someone I know personally and have known for years. Not only is she a kind and brave individual who has overcome this kind of personal hell to rebuild her life.

She also channels her pain and past experience to help other domestic violence victims in the community and has successfully kickstarted various grassroots organizations that are helping others in need.
